Lone Wolf: 2025 67ft High-Tech Cutter

Launched in January 2025, this attractive Morgan 60 will delight and reward adventurous, technical, and "pure" sailors.

With hull and decks strongly built in vacuum bagged double-bias epoxy e-glass and Kevlar (designed under guidance from "High Modulus" of Team NZ and Volvo 60 fame), she features a retractable canting keel, foam filled double skin bottom-sides, redundancy of all critical boat and navigation systems, lowerable mast, full beach ability, well insulated interior, and light-weight requiring a manageable sail area.

Lone Wolf is designed and equipped as a safe, fast passage-making, adaptable expedition boat.

An extraordinary story of experience, innovation and attention to detail sits behind this magnificent vessel.

With her design commenced in the mid-1980's, a "proof of concept" 23ft scale model was first constructed, proving to be entirely successful. The designer and builder, local Nelson surgeon and experienced sailor Harvey Morgan had previously built the first NZ foam sandwich GRP vessel in the early 1970's— 45ft Ngatahi is still being sailed in New Caledonia.

Lone Wolf's finishing work stagnated over the latter years due to Harvey's health issues, and she was sold "out of the shed" in 2024 upon his death. Her current owner has invested considerably in launching, rigging and completing her to a high standard. Commissioning is complete, however he now has an unfavourable diagnosis, and seeks market interest.

Lone Wolf is currently berthed in Tairua Marina, with her pile mooring in a great location negotiable upon her sale.
